Perhaps it is time to consider not the differences between ground campuses and distance program retention strategies, but how the two strategies might be shared.

With national calls to graduate more college students, colleges need to evaluate how they transfer in student experience and credits. Once a student is enrolled it is just as importantly, to assess whether the traditional methods of course outcomes like tests, papers, and projects are still the most appropriate. The panelists represent two innovative colleges focused on student success. Empire State will share the work they have been pioneering in prior learning assessment. APUS will share some of its work in prior learning but focus more on how the analytics used at APUS are revealing new information about student success and whether course outcomes should be changed.
